Kailua Neighborhood Board January 2025 Committee Meeting Reports
Executive Committee
January 2024 Meeting Report
Chair, Bill Hicks
1. A committee meeting was held in-person on January 9, 2025, chaired by Bill Hicks and attended by
committee members Kelli Ann Kobayashi and Levani Lipton and KNB member Josiah Akau.
2. Ongoing efficiency issues were discussed.
3. The recommendation made by Josiah Akau for consideration of a Hawaiian Culture Committee was discussed. Existing committees currently include issues of particular concern to native Hawaiians, especially the Planning, Zoning, and Environment Committee. Where there are issues that overlap more than one committee the board tends to place the issue within the one committee most aligned with the issue. The committee wishes to visualize a typical monthly agenda for such a new committee and how it would fit with the existing committees.
Kailua Water Quality PHPSCD Subcommittee
January 2025 Meeting Report
Chair, Levani Lipton
1. The subcommittee meeting was held in-person on January 9, 2025, chaired by Levani Lipton and attended by committee members Kelli Ann Kobayashi, Kate Righter, and Gary Weller, KNB members Josiah Akau and Bill Hicks, and residents Bob Bourke, Brennan Campbell, Ryley Cambell, William Campbell, Mike Compton, Michelle Compton, Reagan Donnegan, Derek Esibll, Cliff Hahn, Linda Jenks, Kristen Kane, Charles Laidley, Leonard Lepine, Judy Mick, Robert Moeng Tzyh Ng, Anuj Pawar, Doug Seelig, Cindy Turner, and Carmella Vizza.
2. Two announcements were made – The Semi-Annual Hamakua Wetland Community Clean Up event on January 20, 2025 and the upcoming presentation by the Stanford Research team on the results from water quality testing and microbial tracking in Kawainui Stream to Castles Beach scheduled for February 13, 2025 at 6 pm.
3. Several Kailua Scouts were introduced and in attendance at the meeting. They were observing the meeting as a requirement for their communications badge.
4. A presentation was given by former Kailua resident Bob Bourke on why stormwater is a more significant threat to Kailua Bay water quality compared to wastewater effluent from the WWTP.
a. Bourke referenced a study done by UH researcher Fujioka in the 1990s which analyzed water currents near the wastewater treatment plant’s outfall pipe and concluded that the currents were not likely to carry effluent to the shoreline. In Bourke’s opinion, he believes that recent incidents of high nearshore bacterial levels are likely linked to stormwater flows entering Kailua Bay through the Oneawa and Kaelepulu channels. Note: during heavy rainfall and storm events wastewater can overflow from cesspools and can flow to waterways. Untreated waste also can enter storm drains. Bourke’s conclusion is that stormwater runoff containing untreated waste (from animals and humans, along with other pollutants –metals, oil, rubber, runoff from roadways) is a much greater threat to water quality than the effluent from the WWTP in Kailua Bay. Irrespective of the source, the public should avoid water during both kinds of discharges and whenever the water is brown.
b. Bourke made the following recommendations to improve overall water quality in Kailua Bay:
(1) Eradicate mangroves from the waterway system – mangroves currently grow along Kawainui and Kaelepulu Streams. They trap sediment impeding water flow and changing the ecosystem.
(2) Update our city stormdrain system with modern BMPs (best management practices)
(3) Restore flow from Kawainui Marsh to Kawainui Stream to limit stagnation of water
(4) Open the mouth of Kaelepulu Stream on a monthly basis
(5) Dredge a short section of Kaelepulu Stream to allow sea water to flow into Kaelepulu pond
c. Bourke shared that the City’s stormwater NPDES permit is up for renewal in 2025 and requested the water quality committee make comments to improve the permit.
5. The committee passed the following motion: The Kailua Neighborhood Board requests that any reports produced by consultants hired by the City and County of Honolulu relating to water quality (including studies pertaining to wastewater and stormwater) in Kailua’s watersheds be shared with the Kailua Neighborhood Board’s Kailua Water Quality Subcommittee to inform the public’s understanding and assist us in our community outreach. We request that such reports be made available free of charge and expedited by the Office of Information Practices.
Planning, Zoning & Environment (PZ&E) Committee
January 2025 Meeting Report
Chair, Donna Wong
1. A committee meeting was held in-person on January 21, 2025, chaired by Donna Wong and attended by committee members Levani Lipton and Gary Weller and presenter Ron Haas.
2. Presentation on Mid-Pacific’s proposal to construct a Short-Game Practice Facility in 2026. Mid-Pacific General Manager Ron Hass provided information on their proposal as a courtesy to the board and the community. The Committee did not take any positions on the proposal because it is premature and will wait until the EA/SMA comes out.
3. The Navy’s December 2024 2,822 page (with 16 Appendices) Hawaii-California Training and Testing Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS)/Oversees Environmental Impact was discussed. The DEIS, in addition to discussing installation and maintenance of ocean mine warfare training areas off Hawaii and more and maintenance of ocean mine war, the DEIS discusses more frequent use of nearshore areas such as Kaneohe Bay and Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, along with new activities that include training in ocean mine warfare.
The committee unanimously passed the following motion:

(2) In the FEIS state the number of times that air-to-surface gunnery tests of fixed-wing aircraft test the delivery of bombs against surface maritime targets will occur in the deep ocean waters off Kaneohe Bay, Kailua Bay and Waimanalo coastline. In the FEIS explain the short and long-term impacts from each “test” and cumulative impacts from all air-to-surface gunnery tests on the marine environment and ocean marine life.
(3) In the FEIS identify and explain the long-term and cumulative impacts from projectiles, missiles, bombs, target-related materials, chaff (including fibers, end caps, and pistons), and decerators/parachutes on the marine environment and large ocean marine life such as whales off the coast of Kaneohe, Kailua and Waimanalo.
(4) In the FEIS identify the areas where air-to-surface bombing exercises air-to-surface will occur and identify the short and long-term and cumulative impacts on the ocean environment and large marine mammals such as whales and dolphins.
(5) In the FEIS identify areas, if any, off the coast of Kaneohe Bay, Kailua Bay and Waimanalo where bomb drops will occur. In the FEIS explain any short and long-term and cumulative impacts from these bombings on the marine environment, fish, large ocean mammals, nearshore coastal areas and human health.
b. According to the DEIS facilities and operations will support the home basing of P-8A Mission Maritime Aircraft fleet and fleet replacement squadrons at NAS North Island and MCB Kaneohe Bay and base up to two Marine Medium Titrotor squadrons in MCB Kaneohe Bay to conduct aviation operations at training areas on all islands.
